I have done a few searches, but am getting more confused.
This is as much a HTML question as an XAMPP one, so please bear with me.
Here is my situation.
I have XAMPP installed, Apache, MySql, and FileZilla services running. Php seems to be working, but I am not really knowingly using it yet. Running on Windows XP desktop.
I have a VERY SIMPLE HTML form that I want to e-mail when a user hits the submit button.
I don't have Mercury Mail running, and would much prefer to leave it that way.
I have no idea what sendmail is, or the difference between sendmail and "fake" sendmail.
Can I use the "fake" sendmail to send the mail?? How?
I have edited the \sendmail\sendmail.ini and put in my ISP smtp and my userid and password.
Now how do I write the html Form command to use this "fake" sendmail.
Have I missed something basic? (very possible)
Is there a better (easier, faster, simpler) way?
Sorry for the basic question, but getting confused by all the search answers.
Thanks in advance for help and suggestions.
